Stop Paying PECO. Start Owning Your Power.

In Southeastern PA, solar panel installation typically costs between $2.50 and $3.00 per watt before incentives. A small 5 kW system costs approximately $15,000, and a more typical 10 kW residential system averages about $26,500 before incentives. Pennsylvania homeowners also earn income through the PA SREC (Solar Renewable Energy Certificate) program, which further reduces the effective cost. With PECO's 1:1 net metering and SREC income, the economics are compelling. 100% financing is available with $0 down.

The typical payback period for a grid-tied solar system in Southeastern Pennsylvania is 8 to 10 years. This factors in Pennsylvania SREC income (currently worth approximately $15-$25 per SREC) and PECO's 1:1 net metering program, which credits you at the full retail rate for excess electricity sent to the grid. After payback, your solar system generates tax-free savings for another 15-20+ years.

Most homeowners in Southeastern PA can offset 80-100% of their PECO electric bill with a properly sized solar system. With PECO rates at $0.22/kWh and rising, a typical 10 kW system saves $2,500-$3,500+ per year on electricity alone. Add PA SREC income on top of that, and you're looking at even stronger returns. Over 25 years, total savings often exceed $80,000-$100,000.

Solar panels alone will shut down during a grid outage for safety reasons. However, when paired with a battery storage system like Tesla Powerwall, Enphase, or Sol-Ark, your solar panels will continue to charge your batteries and power your home even when the grid is down. We offer both whole-home and essential-load backup configurations, so your lights, refrigerator, internet, medical equipment, and HVAC stay running through any outage.

Grid reliability has declined significantly across Southeastern PA and the broader PJM Interconnection region. Severe weather events, aging infrastructure, and increased demand are causing more frequent and longer outages. Battery storage gives you energy independence — your home keeps running regardless of what happens on the grid. Many homeowners also use batteries for time-of-use arbitrage, storing cheap solar energy during the day and using it during expensive peak hours.

We are certified installers of Tesla Powerwall, Enphase IQ batteries, Sol-Ark, EG4, Sigenergy, FranklinWH, and Fortress battery systems. Each brand has different strengths — Tesla Powerwall is great for seamless whole-home backup, Enphase offers modular scalability, and Sol-Ark provides powerful hybrid inverter solutions. We help you choose the right system based on your backup needs, budget, and whether you want whole-home or critical-load coverage.

Net metering allows PECO customers to send excess solar electricity back to the grid and receive a credit on their bill at the full retail rate. Pennsylvania offers 1:1 net metering, meaning every kilowatt-hour you export is worth the same as every kilowatt-hour you consume. Credits roll over month to month, so your summer overproduction offsets your winter bills. Important: PECO performs an annual true-up on May 31st — any remaining excess credits are cashed out at the energy-only rate (excluding delivery and transmission), so proper system sizing matters.

SRECs (Solar Renewable Energy Certificates) are credits generated for every 1,000 kWh (1 MWh) your solar system produces. In Pennsylvania, electric utilities are required to purchase SRECs to meet renewable energy mandates, creating a market where homeowners can sell their SRECs for additional income. A typical 10 kW residential system generates about 12 SRECs per year. SREC prices fluctuate but currently trade in the $15-$25 range in the PA market.

Yes. We offer 100% financing with $0 down, so you can start saving on your electric bill immediately without a large upfront payment. In many cases, your monthly loan payment is less than what you were paying PECO — meaning you save money from Day 1. We'll walk you through all financing options during your free consultation to find the best fit for your budget.
